Top Secret GT300 Supra
It looks like Top Secret Japan is up to more insanity with another heavily modified Supra, this one built for top speed. While not hitting the 1000 horsepower mark again like their previous Supras, it is still massively fast with 720 hp. Why the power cut? This time they decided to go with a four banger 3S-GTE instead of the traditional inline-6 2JZ-GTE. Why? Notice in the following photos how the motor is pressed up against the firewall: at high speeds, balance is equally important as power, and so Top Secret figured a smaller and shorter motor would prove to be much more stable. This configuration allows the Supra to near the lofty 200mph mark--incredible for a turbocharged 2.2 L inline-4. It's actual registered top speed is marked at 194mph, but by now it may have found its way further along. Shown at the 2001 Tokyo Auto Salon, the GT300's 3S-GTE is mated to a 6-speed Getrag gearbox:

Engine bay up close. Look at all that empty space. Keeping the weight near the center of the car should allow the car to be much more manageable at 200mph speeds (720 hp from a 3S-GTE? Are there MR2s and Celica GT4s that can hit this mark):

Backside. The widened body makes this Supra massive and ought to further aid in grip and balance:

700+ hp mr2
I know that the Phoenix/Garage SPL MR2 hits more than 900 hp at the wheels. The 3sgte is a beast. It's used in the Castrol Supra for the Japanese GC racing. It's quite durable and puts out incredible power for a 4 banger.

Oh, that's right, I totally forgot that the Castrol Supras use the 3S-GTEs. Damn, who'd ever think that a road racing 4-banger could ever put out that much power?

Quite nice!
One of the things anybody can do is throw the battery in the trunk to save on weight, LOL!

It's not a good idea to relocate the battery unless you know EXACTLY what you are doing. The engineers place batteries in specific locations to maintain a proper weight distribution, and eliminate engine vibration as well.
